and that's what I loathe about the idiots who are for this stuff. Yes, I want to curb this stuff - but for fuck's sake there are ways to do it that aren't "Give big government every scrap of data on you".

There are ways to prove I'm over 18 without needing to register my ID with a porn company, or to regulate CSAM while not having to read private messages.
